Kafka event logging

Hi,

I am working on 3 node kafka broker bosh release. I want the kafka broker events to be saved somewhere for audit logging.
By kafka events, I mean to say kafka connection and disconnection logs. Also if a node in the kafka cluster goes down, the event should be logged.

Is there any plugin/configuration to do the same.

Regards,

Prabal Kumar Ghosh

H there,

You could probably wrangle this with log4j and filters. A single broker
doesn't really have a consistent view of "if the cluster goes down", so
it'd be hard to log that, but you could write some external monitoring that
checked brokers were up via JMX and log from there.

Thanks
